The second title about Melanie Beeby, the time-travelling, trouble-shooting angel. She's feisty, witty, streetwise but definitely dead. She's sent on a mission to Shakespearean England to make sure England doesn't lose out on the man of the millennium! New-look cover for an angelic series rebirth! Mel has now passed her exams to become a full member of the Agency -- the specialist team of trouble-shooting, time-travelling angels. She's not always happy and often thinks about her life, and of her mother back down on earth. But when she, Lola -- her best-angel friend -- and Reuben are sent on a mission to Shakespearean England, she realises that she must be fully alert and on the ball, if England is not to miss out on the greatest play-writing talent the earth will ever come to know. A robust adventure for the angel team featuring pirates, smugglers, wicked 16th century plots and plenty of sweet words. Friendships are made and broken -- hearts too, in the second of these lively titles. AGE 10-12
